We're Living in the Single Greatest Era of Human Opportunity

Gary Vaynerchuk joins the Dad Gang podcast to make the case that this is the greatest era of human opportunity, especially for fathers. He explains why recording yourself can spark self-awareness, why you should judge the source of criticism before taking it to heart, and how living within your means creates real freedom. He also flags the trend of adults being tracked by their parents as a major cultural problem and argues that tribalism, when used to support each other, is a force for good.
